Fëanor pours the entire internet into the Recyclotron, and only the best links come out the other end for you to enjoy.

• YESSSS new Broship of the Rings! Eowyn slaying the Witch-King and Thranduil and Legolas. Also, have you been reading Noelle Stevenson's Nimona? It's good stuff!


• Speaking of Lord of the Rings, GeekDad got some fun details on the upcoming LEGO game. I'm a little disappointed that it will stick closer to the movies than the books, but not too surprised. Anyway, it still sounds pretty awesome.


• I tweeted this a while ago, but good enough for a repost: somebody illustrated scenes from an imagined Harry Potter prequel focusing on James Potter and his buddies.


• Here is video of an SUV getting struck by lightning while driving.


• I like the T-shirt featured first in this Super Punch art roundup.


• A poster for one of the greatest movies never made, Jodorowsky's Dune.


• Some very neat art involving fantastic beasts by Chris Applehans.

• Nicolas Delort does some pretty amazing illustrations, including some inspired by Harry Potter. (Via)


• Basic Instructions covers both sides of the old Star Wars vs. Star Trek debate.


• It's technically a commercial for a car, but this amazing video also features slow-motion footage of said car crashing through glass and breaking giant water balloons, so...


• Apparently Ryan Reynolds is going to be the new Highlander. Hmm.


• This illustration roundup features a catbus!!! Auto-post!


• The guy who made that pretty amazing Super Mario Crossover online game is Kickstarting something similar involving original characters.

• This is a pretty wonderful story.Pretty great Joust illustration.


• Heh.


• The UK trailer for Looper! The director himself warns that it's a bit spoilery, though, so consider carefully before watching.

Hey, remember that Cafepress store I used to have? Well, I still have it! My brother realized this, and sent me a T-shirt design, so I put it up! That's right, a new product! Amazing. Here it is. You could buy it, if you wanted. I'm just saying.

(Btw, one of my old T-shirt designs had to die so that this one might live. But seeing as how only one person ever bought it, and that person was my Dad, I don't think anyone will miss it.)

UPDATE: Yeah, so, never mind! Turns out CafePress did not like that design. Fair enough, I suppose.

• Piggie!


• I'm a big fan of early filmmaker Georges Méliès, especially his celebrated Le Voyage Dans La Lune. Well, that film has been restored with a new soundtrack by French pop duo Air! Here's a clip.


• I feel like I've seen this before... but anyway, it's still cool: 48 years of Doctor Who in about 10 minutes.


• You can download a free copy of the game they played in The Last Starfighter right here! It's a PC-only exe, by the way; sorry, Mac-users. I haven't played it yet, but I will! (Via)


• Well, Liam Neeson was at least on the set of The Dark Knight Rises. And he may have a cameo reprising his role as Ra's al Ghul. Which would be AWESOME.


• You can now purchase this great Hellboy/Peanuts mashup.


• I enjoy this Adopt a Dire Wolf T-shirt. It supports a good cause!


• Via Warren Ellis, "Indonesian man arrested for kicking woman he thought was a ghost." And really, from the way he describes it, I might have kicked her, too. But more likely I probably would have just run screaming.

• Dawww. *Sniff* Comics.


• Some fun Princess Bride sketches.


• New(ish) Hipster Star Trek post!


• Stephen Fry with a hedgehog on him. If you're into that kind of thing.


• The latest Hark! A Vagrant is fun. (I got the Hark! book for Christmas! Yay!)

• Cool Zelda tattoo.


• Rian Johnson posted a photo of the time machine from his upcoming film, Looper. Squee!

• Egon 4-evah!


• Yep, been there, done that.


• This styrofoam cup art is pretty awesome.


• Mr. Hipp does it again with a couple of amazing Lord of the Rings pieces.


• A huge timeline infographic reveals what the future will be like, according to films. (Via)


• io9 offers you the chance to vote for the greatest use of pop music in all of sci-fi and fantasy. IIRC, I picked "You Could Be Mine" from T2, "Mad World" from Donnie Darko, "Johnny B. Goode" from Back to the Future, and "Day-O" from Beetlejuice.


• io9 has also collected for you the most amazing space pictures of 2011.


• Doctor Who My Little Ponies!


• What if Darth Vader's infamous "Nooooo!" were edited into other classic movies? In that same vein, here's Star Wars before and after blu-ray-ification.


• The first two episodes of a new Fringe web series.


• The trailer for Luke Cage! (OK, not really. Sorry to disappoint you there.)


• I usually avoid reposting Blastr's top ten lists, because that's all they ever post and it's kind of sad (although I don't have much room to talk...), but this one is rather fun: fake TV shows inside of real TV shows. Itchy & Scratchy is a classic, of course, and All My Circuits is always hilarious.


• Apparently carrots are only orange for political reasons.


• More of Sucklord's fantastic custom action figures.


• Cool piece of art created with tape. Also, Olly Moss' scary/funny Pikachu, and Kate Beaton's more accurate version of the Cheesecake Factory's logo.


• Lovecraftian lollipops! They're unspeakably delicious!


• Huh. Threadless is doing a pretty cool new thing.

• I've got a bunch of Song of Ice and Fire links for you today! First up is a list of ten characters io9 suspects they will leave out of season 2 of Game of Thrones. I'd be happy if they left out the rather horrendous story of poor Lollys, but I'd be really sad to lose Vargo Hoat, Aeron Greyjoy, and Craster. Next is a huge, amazing map of Westeros (via). Then we've got 11 versions of the excellent theme song from Game of Thrones. Finally, a few photos of the actress who will play Brienne in the series. She seems a little too pretty for the role, but George R.R. Martin says she looked the part when she came in to audition, so...


• If you haven't already seen it, here's our first look at Dori, Nori, and Ori from The Hobbit.


• A shirt that gives us a map of the Earth, if the Earth were reimagined as Super Mario World.


• A cool illustration blog, featuring covers for books from video game worlds. (Via)

UPDATE:

• The dude from Let's Be Friends Again draws Ben, that crazy old guy who lives out in the Dune Sea. (I don't think I had any Star Wars links today, so it's a good thing I added this one.)


• Muppets as members of the various Lantern Corps.

Fëanor pours the entire internet into the Recyclotron, and only the best links come out the other end for you to enjoy.

• A couple of fun recent entries on Reelizer: a Monty Python and the Holy Grail poster called "Find the Grail" (which might be instructions as well as a title, but the image is too small to do a proper "Where's Waldo?"-style search), and a beautiful Blade Runner poster.


• Speaking of posters, here's a snazzy one for Raiders of the Lost Ark.


• Dawww. Totally cute Firefly image.


• Heh. A look at the inbox of the Witch-King of Angmar.


• I'm pretty sure I've linked to Hungover Owls here before, but the last couple entries have been golden, so here you go again.


• Awesome Captain America art from Mr. Hipp in honor of the 4th of July.


• BBC News lists 50 of the most hated office-speak phrases. This is from the UK so obviously some of these are a bit odd to American eyes, but a surprising number are painfully familiar. (Via S)


• Pretty stunning photos of people cosplaying as Lady Gaga for the recent "Lady Gaga Day" in the Taiwanese city of Taichung.


• You know I can't get through one of these without some Star Wars links, but this time I will try to keep them to one bullet point. Here's Leia as a Sith, Luke being super-emo (though to be fair he has good reason, as the image makes clear), and a potential T-shirt revealing Leia's reaction when she learned her true parentage.


• Patton Oswalt's rejected pitches for Batman comics are pretty amazing. I'd read those!


• Hipster Puppies is now a book!


• Realistic, disturbing reimaginings of Super Mario villains.


• Amazing convention sketches by David Aja.


• How about some Harry Potter links? Here's a cool (if slightly inaccurate) illustration of Harry protecting Sirius from the Dementors; an amusing T-shirt (via); and all the Harry Potter novels summarized as mostly-wordless, single-page comics.


• Fun Wolverine T-shirt done in the style of old cartoons.


• I hadn't heard of this book called Gods Behaving Badly - about the Greek Gods secretly alive and well in present day and disguised as normal human beings in New York City - but it sounds like fun. And now there's going to be a movie with a pretty amazing cast: Christopher Walken (Zeus), John Turturro (Hades), Sharon Stone (Aphrodite), Edie Falco (Artemis), Phylicia Rashad (Demeter), Nelsan Ellis (Dionysus), Gideon Glick (Eros), Henry Zebrowski (Hermes), Rosie Perez (Persephone).

• Shirt irony!


• A nice piece depicting a tense moment from Aliens.


• Dan Hipp knows how to push my buttons.


• The latest Awesome Hospital amused me. "That'll get you thirty CCs of Ripitupazine, braff." Heh.


• io9 talks about some legendary cryptids that turned out to be real. Yay, platypus! Also, dream on, bigfoot believers! Btw, send your cryptid photos to io9 - they're offering a $2,000 bounty!


• Wizard World was in town recently - right near where I work, in fact - but I still didn't make it over there, because it's super expensive and I just would have wanted to buy everything I saw. Also, kinda busy here. Get off my case! Ahem. Anyway, I can simulate a visit to Wizard World by clicking here and looking at these pictures! And so can you!


• Have I posted about Yog-Blogsoth yet? I should have if I didn't. It's a dude trying to draw every creature in every H.P. Lovecraft story. Love the title, the concept, and the art! But beware - some of the images are NSFW. (Via)


• A camera that lets you adjust the focus after the picture has been taken?? Wow. The future is cool.


• Turns out the Red Skull started life as the cherry on an ice cream sundae.


• I'm not convinced Steven Spielberg's dinosaur show, Terra Nova, is going to be any good, but these posters are fun.


• Click through for links to many beautiful photos of a wedding at a museum.


• Emergency stakes.


• I would like to have this cookies n' cream cake, please. (Via)


• Enjoying this nostalgic Zelda comic and this NSFW Tyrion fan art from this Super Punch link roundup.


• Check out a bunch of cool posters for Immortals, the mythological epic from Tarsem Singh that I continue to be very excited about.


• If you haven't seen the new Captain America trailer yet, you really should. It looks like they got Cap's character just right. So many scenes and lines of dialog in here are so perfect. Really looking forward to this one!


• A six-foot LEGO model of Sauron's Dark Tower. Sweet!

• Some amusing Lois Lane comics by Kate Beaton.

• io9 picks out 19 must-watch summer TV shows.


• Pixar/John Carter of Mars mashup art. Not something I was expecting to see when I got up this morning.


• I'm just going to copy down the headline here: "Chinese 3-D porn has bigger opening than Avatar."


• Officially licensed jacket exactly like the one Luke Skywalker wore when collecting his medal at the end of A New Hope - it even comes with the medal!


• Wow. Another Earth looks intense. Watch the trailer.


• Mynock Hunt! (Via)


• Alt Text at Wired throws its support behind a handful of the weirder projects on Kickstarter.
